Folded Painting Book: A Creative Journey with Liquitex Acrylic Inks and Mindful Meditation๐จโจ
Hello, lovely creators! ๐
I’m excited to share a brand-new art project with you—one that combines vibrant color, playful creativity, and a touch of mindfulness. In my latest YouTube video, we dive into the world of Liquitex Acrylic Inks and create something truly special: a Folded Painting Book, a miniature masterpiece filled with beautiful abstracts on each page.
Why Liquitex Acrylic Inks?
If you’ve never worked with Liquitex Acrylic Inks before, you're in for a treat! These inks are versatile, bold, and perfect for experimenting. They behave much like watercolors, allowing you to dilute the colors for softer effects or apply them at full strength for bright, vibrant results. I even added a touch of sparkle using their bronze and copper inks to give the piece that extra wow factor. And if you don’t have Liquitex Inks at hand, don’t worry—you can still use watercolors, tempera paints, or tubed acrylics to achieve a similar effect!
Playful Painting, Mindful Moments
This project isn't just about creating art—it’s about relaxing and reconnecting with yourself through creativity. We begin with a calming guided meditation, focusing on our body and breath, inviting relaxation into every part of our being. Art is so much more than the final piece; it’s about the process, and I want you to feel the joy and peace that comes from allowing your mind to quiet while your hands create.
After our meditative moment, we dive into the art project, letting the colors flow across the page in a free and playful way. The best part? Once your painting is complete, you’ll cut it to create a miniature folded book! Each page becomes its own little abstract gem—making this project both fun and unique. You’ll have a collection of colorful, textural mini artworks to hold in your hands.
Wrapping Up with Inspiration
To close out our session, I pull a card from "The Gaia Oracle"—this time, the card speaks of passion and love. It’s a beautiful reminder of how important it is to follow our hearts and to infuse love into everything we do, including our creative journeys. These moments of reflection offer a peaceful end to our time together, leaving you with something to carry forward into your day.
Ready to Dive In?
As always, my videos are timestamped so you can easily find your favorite sections—whether you’re interested in the featured supply, guided meditation, art project, or oracle card reading. My goal is to make these sessions relaxing and flexible for you, so you can enjoy them however you like.
I hope this project brings you joy and a sense of calm creativity. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just starting your creative journey, the Folded Painting Book is a fun and rewarding project that allows you to express yourself while reducing stress.
